Xiaomi has no intention of stopping. It's testing an even sharper version of the SU7 Ultra electric car, and this is what it looks like

The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is currently the fastest car from the Chinese smartphone and gadget manufacturer. However, according to recently published photos, an even sharper version of the original electric sedan is in development.

What’s new on the prototype?

Images published by autoevolution show a masked car with a significantly larger rear wing than that of the current SU7 Ultra. It is complemented by a diffuser with prominent fins, while larger winglets and new openings near the front wheel arches have been added at the front – these typically serve to cool the brakes on track-focused specials.

The car is reportedly set to be named SU7 Ultra Extreme and produced only in a limited series. However, the manufacturer has not confirmed any of this: not a single word has officially been said about the car yet.

Four motors and over 2,000 horsepower

Regarding the powertrain, there’s talk of four motors and an output of around 2,054 horsepower. This number isn’t made up – that’s exactly what Xiaomi reported for the smart chassis it showcased in November 2024, when it added another pair of motors to the two V8s. This setup has not yet made it into any production car.

For comparison: the current SU7 Ultra runs with three motors and 1,138 kW, which is roughly 1,526 horsepower. A jump of another five hundred horsepower would therefore not be negligible.

At the same time, a two-door coupe based on the SU7 design is reportedly being tested in China, also featuring a track-special-style wing. Whether both cars share the same powertrain has not yet been revealed.

How much does it cost, and will we see it in the Czech Republic?

The base SU7 Ultra starts at 529,900 yuan in China, which is roughly 1.65 million Czech crowns. The limited Nürburgring edition, of which only one hundred units were to be produced, cost 814,900 yuan, or about 2.54 million.

Outside of China, Xiaomi does not yet sell its electric vehicles, and that is unlikely to change in the coming months. However, they can still be spotted here – this spring we wrote about a masked SU7 that was driving around Brno. Similar prototypes have also appeared in other European cities.
